Starsim

Starsim

Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation Institute for Disease Modeling 

Starsim is a stochastic (random), agent-based modeling framework for simulating the spread of diseases among agents via dynamic transmission networks. Additionally, the tool is open-source and written in Python.

As a contractor to the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation’s Institute for Disease Modeling, we advanced the Starsim framework in preparation for official public release.

We reviewed previous IDM tools, analyzed the Starsim codebase against Python best practices, reviewed user stories to develop a voice of the customer, performed time and memory profiling, and we prioritized Github Issues based on critical-to-quality features. We created and implemented a go-to-market plan that leveraged review insights and identified and prioritized critical-to-quality features. Reduced MVP public launch time from 6 to 4 months—a 33% reduction in cycle time.
